Tift v. Farmers Bank of Tifton
Supreme Court of Georgia · Decided September 14, 1953 · Candler, Atkinson
77 S.E.2d 505; 210 Ga. 35; 1953 Ga. LEXIS 463 (South Eastern Reporter, Second Series)

Tift v. Farmers Bank of Tifton

Opinion

Candler, Justice.

This litigation involves the right to use an alley without interference, and the exception is to a judgment denying an interlocutory injunction. The grant or denial of such an injunction rests in the sound discretion of the trial judge, according to the circumstances of each case (Code § 55-108); and, where the evidence is conflicting, his decision will not be controlled by this court unless it is apparent that he has abused the discretion which the law gives him. Deriso v. Castleberry, 202 Ga. 174 (42 S. E. 2d 356). In the case at bar the evidence is in conflict and no abuse of discretion appears. Hence the record fails to show error. See Fletcher v. Clements, 147 Ga. 754 (95 S. E. 285); Vickers v. City of Gainesville, 177 Ga. 793 (171 S. E. 299); Jones v. Lanier Development Co., 188 Ga. 141, 145 (2 S. E. 2d 923).

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur, except Atkinson, PJ., not participating.
